[QUOTE="DDD, post: 446116, member: 35"] Welcome. I am truly sorry that you have had so much stress and tragedy in your life. on the other hand, it is wonderful that you have a caring husband at your side for the future. It is difficult to accept that for your own health you must detach from your daughter but obviously you have done everything you could possibly do. Are you familiar with the Serenity Prayer? It is famously used the Alcoholics Anonymous and my Dad taught it to me over fifty years ago. For me it is very helpful and has alot of wisdom. Rarely does a day go by that I don't repeat it in my head. It is short. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I can not change, the courage to change the things I can [B]and [/B]the wisdom to know the difference. You are utilizing some of those skills in distancing yourself from your daughter. Perhaps it will help you not worry about what the future will bring with the grandchildren. I hope so. Good luck to you. DDD [/QUOTE]
